Just got a new in box Galaxy S7, G930W8, did a factory reset and updated to the latest firmware, and the headset microphone is not working on the first try. I've tried the OEM headphones and another pair and the mic doesn't work on both. I can hear the other person but the other person can't hear me.
Any ideas on what could be the problem? Or if there is a quick fix?

Oh god... It's a hardware issue?? Do you think reflashing the stock rom could resolve it?
Its just a guess, can you exchange it?

Factory reset first, if it still won't work, try flashing firmware, if that still doesn't work, it's 99% likely hardware

Hi,
I've downgraded from WM6 (Smart1 v2) to LvsW RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.
But now my sound doesn't work :'(
If I use my headset...I hear the sound..but without NOTHING!
Anybody else got this problem?
I did serveal flashes but no sound :-(
Probably your loudspeaker is dead.
I had the same problem, warranty.
But nothing about flash, it's a problem on many Prophet

But I find it quiet strange... because it's just @ that point!
Could also just be the the headset jack. Happened to me on two prophets after using the headset. Usually it's a pin which got stuck after pulling out the headset.

How can I check this right?
Surely, your speaker is bricked. It's a known problem of the Prophet.
Why just after flashing? Only a coincidence, I think.

one stupid que - how to flash rom?
i am newer joined to this forum and have O2 xda Neo
please tell me... how to?
So not sure what's up, using that icecream fake rom and OC kernel, and I hear audio hissing most noticible through headphones when there is a noise, there is a hissing going on. It stops after audio stops though, not sure what's up.
I don't know if my rom and kernel are related to this, may have been here before? Anyone else notice this?
Try putting different rom and see the issue is still there cauz I been running ice cream rom with faux123's kernel and never had single problem like this.

Just tried this and still the same problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426590
Guess my phone is broken?
Also tried returning the ICS one to stock same problem. Also tried it on my hd595 headphones, same problem.
I should mention it does it on the speakers as well, but it's much less noticible.
Do factory reset and if its still bad than you have bad hardware.

By factory reset do you mean like unroot and all?
Well try out stock rom first and if you still have problem than i am pretty sure its ur phone but going stock won't hurt because you would be returning them any way.

It's not your ROM its he audio chip in the phone. There is a thread in skyrocket general where we have been discussing it.
Only workaround is bluetooth or higher quality headphones kinda mask it.

Wait so all phones do this? But I mean it's so loud... well there is a tiny scratch on it too, might as well replace it anyway.
I can't use bluetooth headphones though because I have an icontrolpad and I don't think it can connect to multiple audio devices. Oh well, I don't use it for heavy music stuff, but I mean it's just really loud that hissing.

Nothing, you either ignore it or go bluetooth

Yup, just some of us notice it and others don't. I forget about it unless I try to hear for it. If it's extremely loud I'd get a replacement
So replaced it, same problem. Oh well, but I mean I guess you can ignore it, but hissing bugs me, not enough to not love this phone though.
Even have LTE in Pleasanton.
Thx fags for help anyway
Hi,
The problem occurred while I was speaking on my hands free. The person I was talking stopped hearing me. Since then I could not use my handsfree, it just does not take calls when I push handsfree button. But I still can use them as headphones - listen music etc. But phone does not react anyhow on handsfree button - although it should stop/play music. Phone does recognize that the handsfree is connected - the icon appears on the tom when I'm plugging in the handsfree. I have noticed one this also. Before when I plugged wire connected to my AUX input in the car it showed on the phone icon for head phone (no microphone on the icon), now no mater what I'm plugging in it show headphones and microphone.
I have tried soft and hard reset.
Please help

I do know what does it mean "rooted". How would I flash the ROM. The only thing I have tried is soft and hard reset.

Wait, OK, sorry. I wasn't clear before and made assumptions. The headset problem you have sounds similar to one that was a problem on a custom ROM awhile back. Since you aren't using a custom ROM, I'm being uselessly unhelpful and you should ignore me.
I recently switched from CM10 to JellyBam version 5.2. It is running Android 4.2.1. Ever since I installed it (and I've tried re-flashing it twice) the audio is only coming out of the main speaker and not the headphone jack. Does anyone know why this would happen?
Update:
It seems to not be recognizing the headphones at all. When I set it to make the phone silent when I plug in headphones nothing happened.

If you check that thread you'll see that there are problems routing sound to the headphones in this release.....ther's also a suggested fix as well.

I see that a permanent fix is on it's way through some code change. Others report that app works for them, hope you have the same experience.
It foes work... However the auto detect wasn't working for me... When I use headphones I had to set it that way
.. Using the speaker I had to set it to speaker... Its not jumping through hoops as its just checking an option. But it does indeed get the job done

Hello, this is my first post on XDA I recently bought a OPO from a friend fairly cheap, he just changed the digitalizer on it as he cracked the screen. The only problem was that the loud speaker stopped working when he replaced it. Everything else on the phone is working fine. I've opened up the phone to look at the ''motherboard'' which the speakers connect to, can't see any issues (would post a picture on the parts i mean, but since i haven't made 10 posts i can't have links in my posts). Now, can it be this part acting up? As i read somewhere that this part also controlls the vibration, and the 3 buttons in the bottom of the phone. But those work just fine. Or could it be the actual speakers? But i couldn't think that he could possibly manage to break the speakers somehow... Any suggestions? Also, english isn't my main language so excuse me if there are any errors in my text

Make sure the daughter board(speaker assembly) at the bottom of the device is properly aligned and well screwed.

Thanks for the tip! I tried checking that it was in place and tightening the screws, still no luck I think i might try buying a pair of new speakers

Yes, the speakers were working before he changed the digitalizer. I'm on Cyanogen 12.1-YOG4PAS1NO, no custom rom or recovery on the phone.

You can try flashing Cos13.1.x through fastboot to see if it makes any difference,
